Memories

Last night I had a farewell for a good friend who is moving away to seek more opportunity with his employment. He is decided to put his hand up and say hey I am not staying where I am. I want more. The good thing is that I am not losing a friend, but rather gaining a step closer to my desires as we will still be in touch as with all things we can use today we never really lose contact with our close friends. I am closer to my desires as it shows me how easy it is. At the dinner I spoke with someone who has been fortunate enough to hear Jim Rohn speak many times. I commented that they were very fortunate. They said yes and No. What they went on to say was very true but enlighting. Yes it was very very useful listening t him. However after the first time it was simply....what have I done? The bottom line it doesn't matter who does the talking up front, it is all about what we do with that information. I could listen to Rohn via CD's etc 20 times but still be in the same place. It is about purposeful action, which was what led me to name the title of today memories. One of the first speeches I heard was around term, get up and get moving for the journey is long. No matter where I am and or feel like I am, I cant stay down and flounder. Get up and refresh and move. This is my day. This is my moment. This is my time to shine. Get up and eat for the journey is long. Lets create memories that are lasting.

Opportunity

Every day we are greated with an opportunity. We have a choice of either to pursue these or ignore and carry on with the same old same old and wonder why we are still in the same place as we were last week, last month and before we know it last year. Just because something may appear as a road block to our path way, it in fact may be an opportunity. We are either sitting and waiting for life to happen but hopefully you are out there making it happen. Every day we have the choice to make a walk happen, make the apple into our lunch, make the walk to the work place rather than driving to the door. Every decision we make is either moving us closer to or further away from our chosen desination...it is your opportunity with every decision.

7 Habits

Most of you will be familiar with the series by Stephen Covey. 7 Habits of highly successful people. I have recently come across 7 habits of happy children. The book covers the same principles but puts them in children's language. The first one is you are in charge rather than be proactive. It s highly effective and really useful. I have been thinking about this...and how I am in charge of what i do. I have thought of all the people who have been stuck by the volcano in Ice Land.They have a choice to either sit back and complain about where they cant go and what they can't do. On the flip side they can look for what doors have been opened and what they can do. Nothing happens by chance. Who can they meet,what can they see, what can they experience? Life is about making this day count. Success isnt a one off event...its day by day decisions made one day after the other.
Therefore take the advice and make sure you are in charge and ignore what is going on around you and make it happen for you.

Backwards

I was listening to an audio by Les Brown the Motivational speaker last night and I was reminded of the importance of choosing what we want to do.
People seem to waste their lives by leading lives of quite desperation and then dying with so much still buried deep inside them. Books, songs, lovers, friends, opportunities and many many more are dying inside people. This is backwards. We should be living life to the fullest and then only an empty shell is getting back into the ground. What are the dreams that have been hiding inside me? What are the fears holding me back? Each day I am either getting bigger and better or staying the same and leading a life of quite desperation. There was a man in the bible who cried out as he had fire in his bones. So it is with us...we need to have a fire in our belly to take action daily. Jim Rohn commented that success is easy. It is easy because we can do it. Each and very day you and I have a choice....to either get on with living or get on with dying. lets stop living life backwards and waiting til the end. Lets make today the day. Why wait for something bad to happen to take action. Make it happen today. Lets live life to the fullest today.

Ipad

What an amazing day it is today with the releasing of the Ipad.

The iPad is Apple's new tablet computer. This cozy little piece of machinery kicks some serious app (With nearly 140,000 of them available). It not only kicks, but also "bytes" in proportions of 16 gig, 32 gig, or 64 gig at a time.

This was simply an idea in Steve's mind. However he and his team have taken action on an idea and followed it through. It was ant that long ago that it would have seemed a weird and impossible idea. But he and his team have been working on it to get it through to today where it is the new hit.

What about you? What ideas have you got? Don't write them off....make note of them and think about them....who knows what is brewing inside your world.

Ipad launch....what are you launching?

Clarity

It is important that we are clear about where we want to go. The more detail we can put into our mind the better. Try and describe what it will look, taste, smell, sound like and feel like at the end. Then take note of where you are today. What is different between the end picture and what you are seeing now? The clearer the image of the end product is the easier it is for you to identify what you need to do in order to reach the end product.
Stop just merely thinking about it and start getting serious and see the details. There isn't enough to merely just wish for this and that. If you are truly serious you will stat seeing yourself as the image at the end.
The time for thinking is at an end. You must start doing it. Repeatedly tell your mind that you are the best that you are a overomer, that you will achieve, that you do achieve.
It is very very important that you know where you are going. This brings clarity to your achievement.

Power of our thought

No matter what we have in our life..it first was once a thought. So too if we want to achieve any thing and or success we must focus our thoughts. If we are still where we were one month ago, then we are going backwards. We were made to be the head and not the tail. We were made to go forth and prosper. We are blessed and are to bless others and show them of the goodness of God. This is our right. Why do we allow the negative thoughts and impressions to flood out mind and stop/ hinder us from becoming the best we can be. The key to any success is the power of our focus and our ability to concentrate on that we want. If you want to see the power of concentration and what it can do...allocate 5 min a day for a week and spend that 5min focusing on something you would like to materialise. Over the past few days I have been holding and or planting a seed thought and within few moments each idea has come back fulfilled. The only thing limiting you and the vastness of the universe is the limitations that you place on yourself. Who said you can't? Why not you? Why not now? Why not take what you have and make this day the best ever? Just decide on what you want and hold that thought. Allow no negative thought to enter.
